Default Replace center caps on alloy wheels or not?

If you had a set of alloy wheels that originally came with a center cap with the Honda logo on the cap and all the caps were lost, would you replace the caps or just drive the car without them? If you go without the caps, would you replace lug nuts with chrome ones if the ones you already had were not chrome?

Replace the center caps. If you're on a money budget, as long as those lug nuts work, leave it! If you have money, go OEM all day.

- Just replaced my studs (bcs it broke) and had gotten new chrome oem lug nuts.

I appreciate your comments. I was thinking of buying a set of 7-spoke alloy wheels that came off of a later model Accord and was offered for sale in this forum. But, the seller has no center caps and buying a set would be a significant additional expense; looks like a set of 4 could cost $100 or more. So, I may be looking for other options such as a set of aftermarket wheels or sticking with the original steel wheels.
